Healthy Chicago Suburbs Kids Are Well Rested

Wednesday, February 29th, 2012

Getting an adequate amount of sleep is essential to the health of Chicago Suburbs kids. During sleep, muscles, skin, and bones actually grow and repair themselves. The immune system is recharged during sleep, so this is especially important during the Chicago cold and flu season. Because the brain processes the stimulus and information it received during the previous day, sleep is crucial for healthy brain development.

Parents in the California, Illinois, and United States areas should do everything they can to make bedtime work for their family. One of the most important things is for Chicago parents to model healthy sleep behavior for their children.

If you want your child to follow a consistent bedtime schedule, you’ll need to follow one yourself.

It’s also important to check out your child’s sleep environment in your Chicago home. What is the temperature and noise level of the room? White noise might help your child sleep better. Fans or humidifiers that can be purchased at any United States Wal-Mart, Illinois drug store, or California Target store are inexpensive and do the job well.

Give your child a screen-free room in which to fall asleep. This means no TVs, computers, iPods, or cell phones. In fact, turning off all screens an hour or two before bedtime will help the whole family fall asleep on time.

Make sure you include the children in planning a bedtime routine and then stick to it. If they have trouble saying goodbye after you’ve tucked them in, try giving them a special security object like a blanket or stuffed animal to fall asleep with.

I’m Richard McLain and children’s health is very important to me. I enjoy operating my own Chicago Suburbs home business that sells a nutritional chocolate product.

Green Veggies Boost Immunity For Chicago Suburbs Kids
Thursday, February 23rd, 2012

Do your children catch every cold that goes around Chicago Suburbs? Do they regularly have earaches, coughs, or runny noses? Including more green vegetables in their diets could boost kids’ immune systems and help them stay healthy, according to a study in the journal Cell.¹

The study found that green vegetables help produce a chemical that is important for a strong immune system. The chemical provides signals to the immune cells in the gut and skin, helping them to function properly.

If your Chicago Suburbs kids are like mine, convincing them to eat more green vegetables is as hard as getting them to clean their rooms. However, Chicago parents can find sneaky ways to add more green vegetables to their children’s diets.

My kids love pasta and sauce so I puree spinach into the pasta sauce, disguising the leafy green immune booster. Adding kale to protein smoothies is another way to sneak green vegetables into their tummies.

My name is Richard McLain and I want to improve children’s health in Chicago Suburbs and around IL. I also promote Xe Energy Drink. If you would like more information about Xe Energy Drink or children’s health issues contact me today!

Chicago Parents: Think Twice Before Buying A Used Car Seat
Tuesday, February 21st, 2012

In these days of rising prices and shrinking paychecks, Chicago parents are trying to save money wherever they can. They shop sales for food, clothes, school supplies, and other necessities.

Many Chicago thrift stores have seen their business increase in the past few years as parents have discovered how much money they can save by buying used items. Perfectly good toys, clothes, books, sports gear, and children’s furniture can be purchased for a fraction of retail price at Chicago thrift stores.

One place Chicago parents should not scrimp, however, is on their child’s car seat. If you are considering buying a used child safety seat, make sure it comes with the user’s manual, the model number, and date of manufacture. You want to be certain that you know the complete history of the car seat. Check to see if it is on the list of recalled products. (Information at http://www.carseat.org/Recalls/recall.shtml.) If it has ever been involved in anything more severe than a low-speed fender bender, don’t buy it.

For more information about children’s safety in Chicago, or my favorite nutritional product, contact me today at 847-340-7589.

Healthy Skin for Chicago Suburbs Kids
Wednesday, February 15th, 2012

Hi! Welcome to my Chicago Suburbs children’s health blog. Today’s topic is ‘Healthy Skin for Chicago Suburbs Children.’

The skin is the body’s largest organ, and it’s easy to take for granted all that our skin does for us. It is our first defense against germs, it regulates body temperature, it gives us the sense of touch, and so much more. This organ is always hard at work and parents in the Chicago area need to be sure it’s working well for their children.

A common skin problem in our IL climate is simple irritation. Irritated skin is more likely to crack, which can increase the risk for infection. If your child’s skin is irritated, look around at some of the products in your home that may be causing it. Soaps, detergents, dryer sheets, and other household cleaners all have chemicals and fragrances that can be irritating. Chicago Suburbs parents can try switching brands or reducing use of these products.

Basic skin care for children should include moisturizing after bathing, using fragrance-free products, and practicing good sun protection. If dry skin is an issue for your child, pick up a humidifier at any California, Illinois, or United States drugstore and allow it to run in your child’s room while they sleep.

If simple skin irritation can’t be controlled, or if your child develops other skin issues, make sure to take them to your Chicago Suburbs pediatrician.

My name is Richard McLain and I want to help Chicago Suburbs families raise healthy, happy kids. My Chicago home business sells Xe Energy Drink. If you are interested in learning more, visit my website at http://mxi.myvoffice.com/chocolatehealthtoday/ or give me a call at 847-340-7589.

Energy Drinks Pose Health Risks For Illinois Kids
Thursday, February 9th, 2012

Hello Illinois! Welcome to my children’s health blog. I am a concerned parent and advocate for improved children’s health in the Illinois area.

Today’s topic is energy drinks. Many Illinois teens are under the false impression that energy drinks like Rock Star and Red Bull are similar to sports drinks such as Gatorade and Powerade.

Energy drinks are completely different from electrolyte replacement drinks and we need to help our children understand the health risks they pose. Energy drinks contain dangerous chemicals that can harm kid’s growing bodies, especially their teeth.

Energy drinks contain citric acid, fruit juices and extracts, sugar, and a dangerous chemical that gives them their bright color. They can damage tooth enamel with prolonged use.

It is important for us Illinois parents to model healthy behavior for our children. If your kids see you guzzle energy drinks, you may want to think about the example you are setting.

I sell child-friendly nutritional products that are enjoyed by healthy Illinois families. To order healthy energy-boosters, visit http://mxi.myvoffice.com/chocolatehealthtoday/.

Chicago Suburbs Kids And Headaches
Tuesday, February 7th, 2012

Hello Chicago Suburbs! My name is Richard McLain. Welcome to my children’s health blog. I am a local X Power Squares representative and I am also an advocate for IL children’s health.

Children are no less prone to headaches than adults. If your Chicago Suburbs child complains of pain in their head don’t ignore it.

Some of the most common triggers for headaches in children are:

Missing meals or dehydration
Getting insufficient sleep
Being under stress
Taking certain medications
Spending too much time in front of a flat screen
Consuming caffeine
Receiving a mild head injury
Infection

Eating certain foods can also trigger headaches for Chicago Suburbs kids and teens. Keeping a food log for your child can help you determine if diet is a factor.

If you are prone to migraines, The National Headache Foundation recommends avoiding nuts, ripened cheeses, herring, pizza, and anything fermented.

For more information about children’s health or X Power Squares, contact me today!

Tweet Your Chicago Online Business
Thursday, February 2nd, 2012

Greetings to my Chicago direct selling blog followers! Today’s article is for Chicago home business owners who want to use Twitter to promote their businesses.

If you have never used Twitter, here is a quick rundown from the Twitter folks themselves:

‘Twitter is a service for friends, family, and co-workers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent messages. People write short updates, often called ‘Tweets’ of 140 characters or fewer. These messages are posted to your profile or your blog, sent to your followers, and are searchable on Twitter search.’ twitter.com

This begs the question, ‘What is a follower?’

Having someone ‘follow’ you means they receive your tweets, or Twitter updates about your Chicago business. For example, the followers of my X Power Squares business receive my tweets on their Twitter home page in real time.

Even if you are one of the many Chicago social media newbies, I hope the wheels are turning in your entrepreneurial head. The business promotion possibilities are endless.

How about special limited time X Power Squares discounts for your Twitter followers? How about reposting positive tweets on your home businesses Facebook page or online store? How about having your tweets automatically posted to your Chicago home based business blog? (You can do this easily by installing a Twitter widget.)

As with other forms of social media, Twitter updates gain speed as more and more people repost them. You can enhance your businesses’ brand by reposting positive online reviews from any source.

As I continue to discover new ways to use Twitter to promote my Chicago X Power Squares business, I will share them with my network marketing team members. Check back often.

If you are looking for the best home based business opportunity in Chicago, call me today.

The X Power Squares market has ample growth potential in the Chicago and absolutely explosive growth potential globally. (Remember, you can sell X Power Squares online to anyone with an internet connection, whether they live in Caracas or Khartoum.)

Future Chicago MLM blogs will describe additional ways to use social media to sell product and recruit downline members. If you have discovered something new that works, I would love to hear about it.
